Despite the recent advances in the integration of lexical tone and intonation in phonological theory, all too often the study of intonation and the study of lexical tone are viewed as belonging to different research traditions. This collection strengthens the integrated approach by studying tone and intonation within a common framework, and by tracing their interaction in specific prosodic systems. Some papers deal with the structural properties of lexical tone and intonation, while others focus on the historical development of prosodic systems.

Shape that Sentence by A.J.J RatcliffThis is a practical refresher course on the writing of sentence in English: it is not a book for reading. No doubt the best way to learn to write is to read sound writers and then write under their influence. The ideal thing is to imbibe the sentence tense and the sentence habit. But the plain fact is - a fact that every examiner will confirm, nay, every one connected with English teaching from the infant school to the University - that English boy and girls, youths and maidens, men and women, do not imbibe the sense and habit, at any rate to a satisfactory extent.
